Dallas based entrepreneur Kyle Bass, is in the news again. This time his strong ties to Argentina’s despot Cristina Fernández de Kirchner are in question. Useful Stooges reports on Mr. Bass’s bold and outspoken support of the corrupt Argentinian regime’s default on its foreign debt. Argentina has defaulted on its debt twice in 13 years under Ms. Kirchner’s government, but Elliot Management’s Paul Singer called for full payment by Argentina. A New York Judge ruled in his favor, but Mr. Bass decided to throw in his lot with the Argentine government instead of standing by his fellow American businessman. He spoke out in favor of Argentina’s default and Ms Kirchner’s policies. The BBC called Mr. Bass a lackey of Ms. Kirchner’s because of his staunch support of her autocratic regime. The question is why he is backing such a lackluster foreign government?

Mr. Bass made his money when he predicted the sub prime mortgage crisis in 2008. He founded Hayman Capital Management, but his fortunes are reversing due to bad calls, and bungled opportunities. He lost 14% of his fortune in 2014 through sagging interests. He spoke out on behalf of General Motors to boost his investment during the litigation to compensate the victims caused by airbag failure. The failures caused fatalities, and on national TV Mr. Bass blamed the consumers instead of the faulty engineering. There is his shady dealings in the pharmaceutical industry that is causing him grief. Mr. Bass is being pulled out in front of Congress for short selling pharmaceutical stocks, and then swooping in and neutralizing patents. This practices causes stocks to fall, and opens to door for takeovers by scheming hedge fund managers, while leaving patients in the lurch for life sustaining drugs. The drugs go on hold while the neutralization process takes place. When asked about this practice, Mr. Bass replied he is in it for the money. The Patent Trial and Appeals Board is having none of these shenanigans however, and declined Bass’s challenge against Accordia Therapeutics and Celegne. It was announced on Capital Hill that these practices are being investigated.

Back to the question of why Mr. Bass is coming out so strongly in favor of the corruption going on in Argentina. The answer is simple enough; He is betting that Argentina’s oil to go up, and he is predicting a bullish Argentinian economy. Industry experts disagree, but Mr. Bass is pushing on with Ms. Kirchner’s devious plans to dig Argentina out from under its enormous debt.

Humanity is like an ocean, if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, it doesn’t necessarily mean the whole ocean is dirty. Human rights are not praiseworthy of the name if they don’t protect the people we don’t like as well as those we like. Human rights activists have always been at the forefront of championing for human rights all over the world. Yeonmi Park is one excellent example. They say experience is not what happens to you; it’s what you do with what happens to you, and Park Yeon-mi has done a lot with her story. North Korea is a country that has been the subject of criticism for its communist regime. The lucky few who make it out of North Korea barely make it to safer locations. Park Yeon-Mi is a human rights activist who has done it all at a very young age and lived through all of it to tell others her story. Park was born on October in 1993 in Hyesan North Korea. Yeonmi Park’s family was well-off her father being a civil servant at Hyesan town hall and her mother a nurse in the North Korean Army. While working there, her father got involved in the metal smuggling business that later got him arrested. After her father had got arrested, the family had to struggle to get what they wanted Park’s eyes were opened to the world when she saw a pirated version of the American classic, Titanic, the movie in 1997. This made her realize how oppressive North Korea was to her people. After reuniting with his family, park’s father urged the family to start planning their escape out of North Korea. Her older sister Eunmi escaped first without notifying anyone. The family escaped later on passing through China with the help of brokers that smuggle people out of North Korea. Parks father was left behind due to and illness as he thought his condition would have slowed them down. After getting into China, they traveled to Jilin, a Chinese province and tried to find their Park’s sister but weren’t successful and assumed she was dead. In October of 2007, Park made arrangements with smugglers for her father to be smuggled into China. Her father had been suffering from colon cancer at the time. He died of the disease later the following year, and they were forced to bury him in secret as they were living incognito They were able to hide from the authorities due to the countries large Korean population and found a Christian shelter headed by missionaries. The missionaries finally helped them flee to South Korea through Mongia where they found stable jobs as a waitress and shop assistant. Park Yeon-mi has since then been active in human activism, appearing on various forms of media talking about her life in North Korea. To be inspired is great, to enthuse is startling. Nothing is ever ‘impossible’, the word itself says possible, and Park Yeon-mi’s story goes to show it.

Not only has NAS performed successful AccuraScope procedures on thousands of patients, but they are the leader in diagnosing and treating patients using the new minimally invasive surgery technique. The AccuraScope procedure is used to treat many back and neck problems. A few of these are herniated or bulging disc, facet joint syndrome, failed back surgery syndrome, foramina stenosis, pinched nerve, sciatica, spinal stenosis, and many more back, neck and spine conditions. The AccuraScope procedure allows the surgeon to repair damaged or injured areas using a less invasive process. Extensive open back surgery is still required in some instances, but it is not the only procedure anymore. North American Spine reviews reveal that they have devised microscopic laser techniques that enable small to almost no incision at all used to perform their techniques. The less invasive the procedure, the faster the recovery. Minimally invasive spine surgery relieves neck and back pain without the more invasive surgery.

The spine is a complex structure and with the AccuraScope that enables surgeons to see the exact point of pain, they are able to repair damage and relieve pain in almost all situations. Bone spurs are often one of the common causes of agonizing back pain. The ability to enter the spinal column with the AccuraScope and see with the instrument, the exact cause and remove or repair that cause of pain is one of the benefits of NAS laser surgery and treatment.

Although NAS is focused on minimally invasive spine procedures, they also specialize in CuraSpine and SecuraSpine surgery and treatments along with AccuraScope procedures. The AccuraScope and CuraSpine procedures are used to alleviate pressure on the spinal nerves. This process involves small incisions that relieve the pressure on nerves and discs, thus enabling faster recovery than the usual open back surgery.

The goal is to repair and reduce or eliminate pain and pressure to the injured area with the least amount of discomfort and enhance long restorative pain relief. When the surgery has been completed, Nobilis steps in with a holistic continuum of care. This is another essential part of the treatment and is viewed as the whole healing process. Healing the entire person and providing well-being to every patient.

In the Reno Gazette-Journal Andy Wirth gives an op-ed addressing Reno City Council’s decision to support the Clean Power Plan. Wirth feels that this vote is a step forward in moving our country away from environment unfriendly coal power towards clean and renewable energy. Through the vote, the council became another influential force in the area to pledge support to the cause and Wirth “sincerely applaud[s] their actions.”

Andy Wirth argues that times aren’t changing. Instead, times have already noticeably changed; we are enjoying the fruits of a growing economy and relishing in the growing opportunities that this economy is bringing to the region. There has been a significant amount of progress in establishing and strengthening the clean energy economy and without the support of the private sector to keep pressure on utility companies and the government, this change couldn’t continue.

Wirth calls for elected officials to do more in supporting clean energy and envisions the region to be the leader in the nation for this type of energy. Our elected officials should use “long-term, rational and logical thinking and not give in to well heeled special interest groups” when considering clean energy initiatives.

The Clean Power Plan is a plan that will continue to support the region’s vibrant economy and for this reason, the issue is apolitical. This isn’t the time for arguing. This is the time to realize that our environment is suffering because of our poor energy choices. Furthermore, the plan is also about opportunity and will welcome influential companies such as Apple and Tesla into the region. For these reasons, Wirth argues, the Clean Power Plan is something worth full support.

He is also the president and CEO of Squaw Valley Ski Holdings. During his time with Squaw Valley, Wirth drastically overhauled mountain design and infrastructure at the resort, leading to a huge upswing in customer satisfaction.

For example, a copyright on a computer program will remain valid for fifty years after the program became accessible to the public. Another law in relation to intellectual property is the Patent Act. This law prevents individuals from using or exercising ideas of an invention made by another. Additionally, the Trade Marks Act protects trademarks registered with Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC) in Pretoria, South Africa. A registered trademark can be protected indefinitely if it is renewed every ten years. The last law under the category of intellectual property rights is the Registered Designs Act. This act covers designs that either provide a function or through aesthetic appeal if registered with the Companies and Intellectual Property Registration Office, which keeps records or all patents, trademarks, designs, and copyrights.
